Description Bergi 2011-11-22 13:02:20 UTC
When I'm trying to visit a mobile site with Opera desktop Browser, I sometimes get the error message
"Scripts should use an informative User-Agent string with contact information, or they may be IP-blocked without notice.".
After changing the user agent to Firefox' one it worked. When I changed it back to Opera's and reloaded the page, it still worked. Changing it to IE's - error message; but reloading with the same UAS - it works.
Are there any known caching problems which could lead to such a behavior?

The user-agent error message is handled at the squid level, tweaking product/component.

This is on http://de.m.wikipedia.org/ however... I distinctly remember another bug report on the mobile frontend, which I could reproduce pretty regularly, where doing something or other would trigger that warning and get it stuck in cache for the next poor visitor.
